- please Look closer at the edit summary. unless I am mistaken, The reversion I made to the page was removing vandalism made by an ip user, and your edit replaced it. I could be wrong, as I am new to wikipedia, but If there was a mistake it was made in good faith, and I cartainly did not intentionally vandalize wikipedia.

Citations (Tomato)
Hi Efcmagnew. Thanks for trying to improve the
- (A little sheepishly) Ouch. Thank you for pointing this out. I should have looked closer at the "sources" I used before I just spanked them right in there. I have a few more, that I think are better. What do you think of this one? It calls it a "wolf's peach", but it's probably the best source I have. There are two others that refer to it similarly but don't say why. You probably know this, but I'm not the one who added the original wolfpeach note to the article. I saw the [WP:BOLD in the future. Also, with the wikibook "Ethnomedicine" tag, I looked at the edit preview and noted the blue link, figuring that it was a page (also I knew the WB ethnomedicine was quite large). again, my bad. Could I move the WB horticulture template to the "cultivation" section? it would seem to better fit there. Thanks, and have a wonderful day, Efcmagnew (talk) 15:59, 24 March 2010 (UTC)]
- No worries--feel free to be bold, but remember to be careful with sources! It's a tricky one to source—the first two of those three websites you've suggested both seem to be self-published, which is more of a concern than usual, since the claim's been on Wikipedia long enough that they could have used that. We could get away with the last one, which says it's using an old published dictionary, but it doesn't give the derivation. After a bit of digging I found this article which we can cite, although unfortunately most people probably can't see it. The wikibooks template page says that it should go in the 'External Links' section if possible, so let's leave it where it is. In any case, the cultivation section is more about commercial cultivation than growing it in your garden. Thomas Kluyver (talk) 10:40, 25 March 2010 (UTC)
- Thanks for the guidance. It looks good now, but I can't help but note that "Plump thing with a navel" looks hilarious written down, especially in WP. Ha ha. I hope my wreckless editing hasn't ruined the other article I've been trying to improve, Garlic. The only reason I was looking at Tomato is because I was looking for layout ideas. Thanks again, Efcmagnew (talk) 00:38, 26 March 2010 (UTC)(not asking you to check or anything, I shall read more of WP policy and look it over myself and maybe do a peer review.)
